12201184055?profile=originalThe National Science and Media Museum is implementing new programmes of research and interpretation of its world-leading collections relating to photography, film, television and sound technologies. The role of Curator of Television and Broadcast will take a leading role on championing our world class collections of Television and Broadcast in relation to the rest of our core collecting areas.

As Curator of Television and Broadcast you will work with colleagues across the Science Museum Group to explore the history and current practice of television and broadcasting technologies and create opportunities for engaging visitors with media, technology and engineering-related content across SMG public programming.

You will work closely with the exhibitions team at the National Science and Media Museum and digital content teams across the group to develop the content and interpretation for our new permanent galleries, Sound & Vision, as well as our temporary exhibition programme. This role will support our celebration in 2022 with the BBC of a 100 years of Broadcasting.

Working alongside other specialist archivists and curators in National Science and Media Museum, you will foster links with internal and external stakeholders in the television and broadcasting communities. As a curator you will feed into strategies for embedding television and broadcasting collections in SMG’s forward programmes of temporary exhibitions and permanent galleries and ensure a presence for them in SMG’s social and broadcast media outputs.

Joining us you will have a broad knowledge of the history and current practice of history of science and/or media alongside experience of working with museum collections. You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills with experience communicating history or complex information to non-specialist audiences for example in exhibitions, articles, blogs, outreach or teaching.
